India is a false patriarchy.

In a true patriarchy, men protect women. In India, there is a strong culture of men tolerating and inflicting disgusting violence onto women.

False patriarchy is more dangerous than no patriarchy.

It’s due to it being a culture of largely unmasculine men feeling entitled to all the privileges that healthy masculinity earns through physicality, actual power, capability and charisma.

It is a culture in which boys are rewarded simply for being male, and unexposed to the rites of passage to earn the right to be a man, they become unmasculine men who take what they want by brute force

When boys don’t need to earn the privilege of being a man, when they are given the fruits of patriarchy without earning it, the result is a beta patriarchy. Which is neither good for the women nor the men. Makes sense why the Europeans could so easily control it.

Ultimately, beta patriarchies, although cruel and inhumane to their women, will always be subservient to actual patriarchies run by real men. The proof is in history. When real men attack, the women will run to them, as if to saviours.

Feminism is the extreme answer to India’s problem and I believe it is not the correct one. Women seek to protect themselves by emasculating the men further. It won’t work, they can’t be emasculated more than they are. They must become real men.

This starts from mothers not feeding sons more than daughters. Sons not getting any special extra celebrations or priveleges. And more activities in which boys must constantly earn any respect or praise. When a boy earns his respect as a man, he will be a good man.
